Read More	Catherine Rhodes was born about 1799, the daughter of William Rhodes and Lydia Bass. She married Obadiah Saunders in 1821 in Aylesford, Kings County, and they had 12 children. She died age 68. Christian Messenger – Wednesday, 7 Aug 1867 – Page 254. Mrs. Catherine Saunders – Wife of Obadiah Saunders, professed faith in Christ during the extensive Revival in Aylesford and adjacent places, which commenced in the autumn of 1828. She was baptized by Rev. Thomas Ansley, and united with the Baptist Church in Aylesford. Brother and sister Saunders have resided of late in Springfield, Annapolis Co., and been members of the church there. Our departed sister was an eminently pious and exemplary woman. While she "looked well to the ways of her household, and ate not the bread of idleness," she was "fervent in spirit serving the Lord." Possessing a pacific spirit, she was never known to have the slightest variance with any member of the Church to which she belonged, nor with any neighbour. Sister S. was the mother of 12 children, and the grandmother of 42. Of the former, 10 survive her, and of the latter, 37 and 2 great grandchildren children. She has also left a sorrowing husband, to mourn his irreparable loss. After a brief illness, sister S. was called home on 16 Mar 1867, in the 68th year of her age. Not long before her departure she enjoyed a season of peculiar consolation. – Com. by Rev. C. Tupper. Children: 1- Mary Saunders (1822-1890) married Charles Grandison Bent (1817-1869). ..
